Sowing instructions
IMMEDIATE SPRING Sow the seeds at 2mm depth in the Acid Substrate between 64-72°F. The container with the seeds is placed in a saucer of water until germination occurs. As a result, the moisture reaches the seeds by capillary action and ensures that the seeds do not dry out. The seeds germinate in 2-3 weeks.
